That same mentality applies to organizations with 100-200 users! After the
latest meeting with the Oracle rep, damagement is seriously considering
alternate database systems.

Hi,
I looked into SE but found that Oracle would not allow it to be used on a
machine that has 4 or more CPUs or can support that many CPUs, which for
this company is a problem because we generally run Oracle on Sun servers.
Don't know if that has changed now with later Oracle releases.

Which license do you think provides the Oracle sales representative the
largest commission? Money is considered an acceptable motivation for a sales
rep. The key word in your statement is negotiating.

When negotiating site licensing, does Oracle encourage the customers to buy
EE licences?
Or can people negotiate for a mix of EE or SE.
Just curious, I don't know how that would work -- not very compatible with
OracleStore, it seems to me.

We also has site licensing.
It was done 3-4 years ago. Maybe Oracle changed tactics since then.

I had a 3 day training last year on db2 udb 7.2 when we were looking at it
for a Siebel project who died.
Yes, DB2 is not as Oracle who works the same on all platforms.
I found db2 udb 7.2 missing basic functionnalities like there is no truncate

All servers are running IBM Aix here, so I hope DB2 UDB will work correctly.
For the price, IBM is giving us 25% cheaper any Oracle price.
The database will be bundled with all IBM's BI software.
On the negative side, DB2 has not a big and accessible community like Oracle. On the

Cost is the easy one. They run comparable to Microsoft or thereabout.
They have various options I haven't looked at yet, that might make them
more expensive than that. The DB2 on mainframes and the DB2 on Unix, for

One of my previous employers had a site license. Not a huge
site, but not too small either. About 5000 employees, lots
of IT in that business.
Not only a site license, but a 72% discount. We had a *good*

There's one thing that IBM can do, which Microsoft and Oracle can't

We've been very excited about Oracle Standard Edition. Helped stave off
the interest in MS SQL. Given the budget pressures at many organizations,
I'm surprised we don't hear more about this alternative.
